Atavism is a term used to describe the reappearance of a trait or characteristic that was present in an ancestor but has been absent in subsequent generations. It is often referred to as a 'THROWBACK' or 'REVERSION'. In other words, it is the re-emergence of a trait that had been lost in the evolutionary process. Atavism can be seen in both physical and behavioral traits, such as the presence of a tail in humans or the re-emergence of a behavior that had been lost over time.
